Installation Guide
Familiarize yourself with this information as well as the cabinet interior, application scenarios
of the cabinets, and relevant clearance requirements before installing the cabinets.
3 Installation Preparations
This chapter lists the tools and instruments that must be obtained before the installation. It also
specifies the skills that the onsite personnel must have.
4 Unpacking Check
Unpack and check the delivered equipment to ensure that all the materials are included and intact.
5 Obtaining the ESN
The electronic serial number (ESN) is a unique identifier of a NE. Record the ESN of the base
station before the installation for future commissioning.
6 Installation Process
The process of installing the BTS3900A consists of the following procedures: installing the
bases, installing the cabinets, installing optional modules, installing cables, installation check,
power-on check, and subsequent operations.
7 Checking the Installed Modules and Cables
After installing modules and cables in the cabinet, you need to check that the modules and cables
are installed securely.
8 Installing the Base
This section describes the procedure and precautions for installing the base for a cabinet on a
concrete floor.
9 Installing the Cabinet
When installing the BTS3900A, use different installation modes based on different scenarios.
10 Installing a PGND Cable and an Equipotential Cable
A PGND cable connects a PGND screw in a cabinet and a PGND bar to ensure proper grounding
of the cabinet. An equipotential cable connects PGND screws on different cabinets to ensure the
equipotential bonding between the cabinets.
11 Installing Optional Modules and Their Cables
This chapter describes procedures for installing the optional modules and their cables onsite.
12 Installing Cables
Before cabinets used in the BTS3900A are delivered, the boards and cables inside the cabinets
have been installed. You must install the external cables and cables for optional components
onsite.
13 Installation Checklist
After the cabinets and devices are installed, you need to check the installation items, installation
environment, and cable-related items.

the battery temperature sensor in the cabinet, see Temperature Sensor.
A BTS3900A site can be configured with a maximum of two cabinet combinations (one
cabinet combination consists of one APM30H and one RFC). The two cabinet combinations
must be installed side by side with a clearance of 40 mm (1.57 in.) between them.
When a site is configured with more than six RFUs and only one IBBS200D or IBBS200T,
the IBBS200D or IBBS200T must be configured with at least two battery packs consisting
of 92 Ah storage batteries to avoid overcurrent of a single battery pack during the
discharging.

BTS3900A(Ver.D)
Installation Guide
2 Overview
During an initial site construction, space must be reserved for capacity expansion. Unless
otherwise stated, the original cabinets remain in the original positions and new cabinets are
added to the right side of original cabinets during capacity expansion. In a special scenario,
new cabinets can be added to the left side of original cabinets.
A cabinet combination of one APM30H and one RFC is configured with one BBU by
default. This cabinet combination can be configured with a maximum of two BBUs, and
the power consumption of all BBU boards cannot exceed 1000 W. This principle applies
to a new or expansion scenario.

When a triple-mode base station is configured with only one BBU, the BBU is installed in
the position of BBU 0 in the following figure.
When two BBUs are configured in the initial site construction, the BBUs are installed in
an APM30H and transmission equipment is installed in a TMC11H.
During capacity expansion, if there is space for a second BBU in the APM30H, the BBU
is installed in the APM30H. Otherwise, the BBU is installed in a TMC11H.
When a site is supplied with 110 V AC or 220 V AC power and does not require backup power,
the cabinet configurations of a triple-mode base station with different requirements of space for
customer equipment are shown in the following figure.

The bending radius of a 7/8'' feeder must be greater than 250 mm (9.84 in.), and the bending
radius of a 5/4'' feeder must be greater than 380 mm (14.96 in.).
The bending radius of a 1/4'' jumper must be greater than 35 mm (1.38 in.). The bending
radius of a super-flexible 1/2'' jumper must be greater than 50 mm (1.97 in.), and the bending
radius of an ordinary 1/2'' jumper must be greater than 127 mm (5 in.).
The bending radius of a power cable or PGND cable must be at least three times its diameter.
The bending radius of a fiber optic cable is at least 20 times of its diameter, and the bending
radius of a breakout cable is at least 30 mm (1.18 in.).
The bending radius of an E1/T1 cable must be at least three times its diameter.
The bending radius of a signal cable must be at least five times its diameter.
Different types of cables must be separately laid out and bound, with a minimum distance
of 30 mm (1.18 in.) from each other.
The cables must be bound tightly and neatly. The sheaths of the cables must not be damaged.
The cable ties must face the same direction, and those at the same horizontal line must be
in a straight line.
The excess of the indoor cable ties is cut off. The excess of 5 mm (0.197 in.) of the outdoor
cable ties is reserved, and the cut surfaces are smooth without sharp edges.
After cables are installed, labels or nameplates must be attached to the cables at their ends,
curves, and interconnection positions.
Security requirements
l
When routing cables, avoid sharp objects, for example sharp edges on the wall. If necessary,
use tubes to protect the cables.
When routing cables, keep the cables away from heat sources and use heat insulation
materials to insulate the cables from the heat sources.
Reserve a proper distance (0.1 m or 3.937 in. is recommended) between equipment and
cables especially at the cable curves to protect the cables and equipment.
Route each cable into the room through the feeder window.

Reserve drip loops for all cables outside the feeder window before routing them into the
room. Ensure that the radiuses of the drip loops are greater than or equal to the minimum
bending radiuses of the cables.
When routing a cable into the room, ensure that a person is assisting you in the room.
Protect outdoor cables against potential damage. For example, put the cables through tubes.
The cables to be protected include AC power cables, transmission cables, and cables laid
out underground.
When routing cables through tubes on the ground below the cabinet, put a 30 mm to 50
mm (1.18 in. to 1.97 in.) length of the tubes into the base of the cabinet but do not put the
tubes into the cabinet. Use waterproof tape or waterproof silicon gel to block both ends of
the tubes and use sheet metal tabs to secure the tubes to the cable holes in the base.
When routing cables through tubes along a metal cable trough below the cabinet, do not
put the tubes into the base of the cabinet but cover the cable trough and connect the tubes
to the cable holes in the base.
Use clips to secure cables outdoors. For the method of installing a clip, see the installation
guide delivered with the clip.
Arrange cables neatly along the routing direction and use clips to secure the cables.
Determine the positions where the clips are installed according to the actual situation. For
example, 7/8" feeders are secured with clips at an interval of 1.5 m to 2 m (4.92 ft to 6.56
ft), CPRI fiber optic cables and power cables are secured with clips at an interval of 1 m
to 1.5 m (3.28 ft to 4.92 ft). Ensure that the clips are evenly spaced and in the same direction.
When fastening cables with a clip, ensure that the cables are aligned neatly and are routed
through the holes in the clip. Do not stretch the cables too tightly.
NOTE
There are two types of clips: 3-hole clip and 6-hole clip, which are described as follows:
l
A 3-hole clip is shown by illustration a in the following figure. It is often used to fasten feeders.
A 6-hole clip is shown by illustration b in the following figure. It is often used to fasten power cables and
CPRI fiber optic cables.

After routing a DC power cable onto the platform on a tower, route it along the shortest
path to the rails surrounding the platform, and route it along the inside of the rails.
After routing a DC power cable close to the equipment on a tower, use clips to secure the
power cable onto a pole or the rails surrounding the platform. Ensure that there is no
excessively long distance between the equipment and the position where the power cable
is secured.
PGND cables for a base station must be connected to the same group of ground bars.
The external conductor of the coaxial wire and the shield layer of the shielded cable must
have proper electrical contact with the metal surface of the equipment to which they are
connected.
PGND cables and signal cables must be installed separately. A certain distance must be
reserved between them to prevent interference from each other.
Other devices must not be used for electrical connections of the PGND cables.
All the metal parts in the housing of the equipment must be reliably connected to the ground
terminal.
Cabling of E1 cables
l
E1 cables must not cross power cables, PGND cables, or RF cables when laid out. If
transmission cables are laid out with power cables, PGND cables, or RF cables in parallel,
the spacing between them must be greater than 30 mm (1.18 in.).
E1 cables are lined up straight and bound neatly with cable ties.
E1 cables must not be pressed by the door of the cabinet when routed, as shown in the

When fiber optic cables are routed, the excess of the fiber optic cables must be coiled around
special devices, such as a fiber coiler.
An unarmored fiber optic cable must be bound using binding straps. If a fiber optic patch
cord needs to be secured in a cabinet or a piece of equipment, use binding straps to bind it
and then use cable ties to secure the binding straps to the cabinet or equipment. Ensure that
the fiber optic cables can flexibly move in the cable ties. Do not bend the fiber optic cables
sharply. The following figure shows how to bind the fiber optic cables correctly.
Figure 12-5 Binding fiber optic cables
When coiling fiber optic cables, apply even strength. Do not bend the fiber optic cables
with force.
The fiber optic cables must not be pressed by the door of the cabinet when routed, as shown
in the following figures.

After routing a fiber optic cable onto the platform on a tower, route it along the shortest
path to the rails surrounding the platform, and route it along the inside of the rails.
After routing a fiber optic cable close to the equipment on a tower, use clips to secure the
fiber optic cable onto a pole or the rails surrounding the platform. Ensure that there is no
excessively long distance between the equipment and the position where the cable is
secured.
Coil the excess of the fiber optic cables near the equipment on the tower before securing
the cables on the tower.
